Three Credit Union Development Education (DE) Program Awards were presented at a special reception during the annual DE Workshop, July 9-11, 2015 in Denver, Colo. in conjunction with the jointly held America’s Credit Union Conference and World Credit Union Conference.

The DE Program Awards go to those certified Credit Union Development Educators (CUDEs) who exemplify what DE stands for through their individual or cooperative efforts to make a difference in their credit union, community or on a national/international basis.

With a deadline of July 31, 2015, credit union supporters are encouraged to nominate individuals and organizations for the Herb Wegner Memorial Awards to be presented by the National Credit Union Foundation. Winners will be honored at the Foundation’s annual awards dinner on February 22, 2016 in conjunction with the Credit Union National Association (CUNA) Governmental Affairs Conference (GAC) in Washington, D.C.

“The Foundation’s Wegner Awards are widely considered the highest national honors in the credit union movement, so we encourage you to nominate your best and brightest for these prestigious awards,” said Danielle Brown, Foundation Director of Donor Relations and Development.

To highlight National Employee Wellness Month in June, the National Credit Union Foundation held a Twitter chat on Thursday, June 18 to discuss how credit unions include financial wellness as part of their internal programs.
